Effect of adding albumin to solutions of somatostatin on inhibiting pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion in dogs. 1983

C Beglinger, and C Knezevic, and L Jeker, and U Grötzinger, and K Gyr

In five conscious dogs with chronic gastric fistulas we studied the effect of somatostatin solutions on pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion. Somatostatin was dissolved in 0.154 M NaCl alone or in the same amount of saline to which dog albumin had been added to give a 0.5% solution. Somatostatin produced a dose-dependent inhibition of pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion. However, the inhibition was significantly less when somatostatin was dissolved in saline as compared to saline plus albumin. This study suggests that albumin should be added to somatostatin solutions to preserve biological activity, and it confirms previous reports indicating that, without albumin, basic peptides have a tendency to stick to infusion systems.

D010418 Pentagastrin A synthetic pentapeptide that has effects like gastrin when given parenterally. It stimulates the secretion of gastric acid, pepsin, and intrinsic factor, and has been used as a diagnostic aid. Acignost,Gastrin Pentapeptide,Peptavlon,Pentapeptide, Gastrin

D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012996 Solutions The homogeneous mixtures formed by the mixing of a solid, liquid, or gaseous substance (solute) with a liquid (the solvent), from which the dissolved substances can be recovered by physical processes. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Solution
D013004 Somatostatin A 14-amino acid peptide named for its ability to inhibit pituitary GROWTH HORMONE release, also called somatotropin release-inhibiting factor. It is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, the gut, and other organs. SRIF can also inhibit the release of THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE; PROLACTIN; INSULIN; and GLUCAGON besides acting as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In a number of species including humans, there is an additional form of somatostatin, SRIF-28 with a 14-amino acid extension at the N-terminal.
